Ode to Brocade Fragrance

I checked the author's profile and found that they are a newcomer, haven't been on the site long, and seem to only have this one book. However, this book feels completely different from others, both in plot and content, and the language is always full of imagery. "Unintentionally unconventional, yet possessing exceptional taste," I think this book resonates with readers because of its unique plot and content. I initially saw this book on a forum and started reading. After lurking for a month, I finally couldn't resist leaving a review. But I feel there's only one drawback: the author updates too slowly, leaving me wanting more. And every time they get stuck at a crucial moment, it's very frustrating. Yes, I'm here to urge for more updates. I hope the author updates soon! @

First of all, @-----------------This is my first book review. To be honest, I'm not a very patient reader, and I skipped through this book quite a bit. The author's writing style is very elegant. Unpretentious and natural. Just right. Of course, there are a few parts that are slightly bland. [Honestly! Please forgive me!] I feel that the whole book conveys a sense of helplessness. Helplessness towards reality, helplessness towards life, and helplessness towards the female protagonist herself. Through these, it speaks of this hopeless world. The author is probably a pessimist. I think if the male and female protagonists were to fight each other in the end, neither would care much about their feelings, and even if they did, one of them would inevitably die. Because they each carry too much. One must let go, the other must not; the one who lets go dies. If both let go, it would probably be a good ending, but that's just wishful thinking. And even if one of them can let go, who can give up everything? I admire the female protagonist; after all, learning to let go is so incredibly difficult. The female protagonist could actually be anyone in life, deeply aware of the cruelty of reality and the unrewarding nature of kindness. She must learn to be ruthless, abandoning kindness, yet ultimately retain a kind heart; she must be heartless and indifferent, yet ultimately fall in love. Humans are, after all, emotional beings. Abandoning emotions is incredibly difficult. Alas, it's no wonder the ending is so heartbreaking. I no longer hold out hope for a happy ending for the male and female protagonists. However, my personal suggestion is that the author shouldn't make the ending too realistic; a balance of bitterness and sweetness is just right. [Personal suggestion, just a personal suggestion] -------The author's writing style really suits my taste. I will follow your other novels in the future. --------

My first impression was of the first-person perspective, and I was stunned for a long time. I guess I really didn't expect that someone would use the first person in an ancient romance novel. Did this indicate a kind of confidence? I hesitated a bit along the way, not because I was afraid I couldn't write a long review, but because I felt that a book review wouldn't have as much impact on this author with such strong confidence as I imagined. Reading her work, watching the women in the book steadily develop according to their own plans, the palace intrigue, so light yet bloody, seemed like the recent drama "Nirvana in Fire," giving people wisdom and making them think deeply. No matter how heart-wrenching, how cruel, or how tragic the palace intrigue, it was far less meaningful than the simple "I"...

I don't quite understand! Does this woman want revenge or to get married?

I first read it two years ago, when I had just entered junior high school. My happiest night was chatting with my crush and then reading novels after he fell asleep. Back then, I was poor and could only read free books. I was drawn in by the synopsis and started following it, reading over ten chapters a night. I remember crying my eyes out at the heart-wrenching parts; maybe I felt the same way as Su Jin, that unrequited love, the heart-wrenching pain. Then it seemed to stop updating for a while. I'd check back every day and see the same few chapters, and as time passed, I seemed to forget about it. Today I wanted to come back and check again, and it's finally finished! But I don't have the courage to read it again; I'm afraid of remembering the sadness of the past two years. Overall, though, I can't believe this is the author's first novel. I've written about similar things before—clichéd plots that I couldn't bear to read. But the author has incredible perseverance to keep going, which I really admire. Although I still don't know the ending or the plot...

As expected of a master, this is fantastic writing! The author's skill is profound, demonstrating masterful control during the creative process. Keep it up!

For someone writing a novel for the first time, I can only say it's amazing. I hope you'll produce more works in the future. Keep it up!

All I can say is that for a young lady writing her first novel, this level is only considered excellent. I hope you continue to work hard and create even more amazing works. I look forward to your next piece.

Author, please update soon!
